About AGCC2025 The Asian Genetics Consortium Conference (AGCC) is an international forum established to unite the academic diversity and collaborative strength of Asia, with the aim of fostering continuous development. Its mission is to create a truly international, cross-regional platform for academic exchange by promoting collaboration among genetics societies and research groups that have traditionally been focused on their respective domestic regions.
     The inaugural symposium, AGCC2024, was held in Busan under the leadership of the Genetics Society of Korea. The second symposium, AGCC2025, will be hosted by the Genetics Society of Japan. The theme for AGCC2025 is “Genetics in Asia: Heredity, Diversity, Discovery, and Beyond,” highlighting the introduction and exchange of diverse genetics research across Asia. Organizer: The Genetics Society of Japan

Supported by: Public Trust for the Promotion of Evolutionary Biology (Motoo Kimura Fund), Public Interest Incorporated Foundation for the Promotion of Genetics, International Society for the Studies for Mt.Fuji-Hakone-Izu Regions of Japan (FHIX), National Institute of Genetics, and others.
